The debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) is a financial ratio that measures the property's ability to pay their debts. In broad terms the DSCR is defined as the cash flow of the property divided by the total debt service.
A DSCR > 1.0 indicates that the property is generating sufficient cash flow to pay their debt. A DSCR < 1.0 should be a cause for concern because it indicates that the property is negatively cash flowing.
Using a Debt Service Coverage Ratio loan to invest and expand your real estate portfolio can be a valuable tool to utilize going forward. DSCR loans may be the right fit for you as an investor.
